(List is correct as of 4^th October 2011)

The data in this list differs slightly to that of our Facebook list and is ranked according to the hotel’s influence on the twitter verse.

We’ve used twitter.grader.com to rank each hotel on twitter. This clever little app considers many different factors including number of followers, number of followings and number of posts (among many others). This creates a score, enabling each twitter account to be ranked out of all the accounts that have been graded in the twitter network.

It basically gives you an idea of the impact each tweet has.

The grade is out of 100 and represents the percentage of accounts that have less of an impact than yours. For example, a TwitterGrade of 95 means tweets from your account have more of an impact than tweets from 95% of all other graded accounts on twitter. Pretty impressive hey?!

As with all our lists, we’ve done our best to recognise every contender for the list but a few are bound to have slipped through the net. If you think your hotel should be included on the list, please let us know by commenting below, remembering to include your “@” twitter account name.

The list is open to all hotels in the UK.

Interesting. It must be difficult for Chesterfield to read the incoming tweets from 52,000 twitter accounts though!

You should try ranking these accounts based on ratio of followers to following — it would be interesting to see who comes out on top then.

I imagine that a large proportion of Chesterfield’s followers are only following because Chesterfield followed them first, which means they are other businesses rather than potential customers.

It’s better to have 2000 potential customers following you than 50,000 people who will never buy from you I guess.
